Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ?

I've mentioned my Edge NL 12.1s previously; they are definitely a keeper. The big Karans (don't own them but have heard them) certainly make the list. The entry that has my attention right now, and something I am dying to hear about and hear in person is Tom Maker's (Maker Audio) NL14 stereo and the NL14+ monos....I have to find a way to hear them but surmised based upon details I was given about all the lessons learned that have been applied to them, I suspect they will find a place on this list.

I thought my h/k citation 19 would be until someone told me the caps were like listening through mud.
I've recently uped to a rotel rb-1080.

Opera Consonance Cyber 800's, built like a tank, purposely good looking, excellent quality of manufacture, dog reliable, gutsy, great dynamics, musical.
Cheap to re-valve and affordable to purchase.

Burmester 911 MK3.

Coda for me. I have 2 15s stereo amps converted to monoblocks linked to the 05X preamp and the 06x phono preamp and I'm looking no further. Nirvana.

Great thing about Coda is that you can talk to the owners and they are so accommodating. They set up my phono amp specially to match the loading of my cartridge. They also converted the 15s for me at the factory so when they arrived it was minimum setup. They make and design all their equipment in the factory in Sacramento Ca.

They are the best.
